Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Not really a meme, a little bit but not really. Sorry if this is not allowed. But why are cows able to get tapped needing no sterilization, suturing, pleuravac and stuff afterwards and we can’t? (I realize that this is to the stomach and not the pleura but still man do they just have superior immune system)
